Yes
The device is indicated for the surgical treatment of periodontal defects to aid in the regeneration and integration of tissue components, which addresses a medical condition or ailment, qualifying it as therapeutic.
No
The device description indicates it is a bioabsorbable barrier used for tissue regeneration, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical, bioabsorbable barrier made of polymeric solution and doxycycline, supplied with syringes and a cannula. This is a hardware device, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the surgical treatment of periodontal defects to aid in tissue regeneration. This is a direct therapeutic intervention within the body.
- Device Description: The device is a physical barrier (a flowable polymer that precipitates) and a drug (doxycycline) applied directly to a surgical site. It functions by physically isolating the area and delivering a drug to reduce bacterial colonization.
- Mechanism of Action: The mechanism involves physical isolation and drug delivery within the body, not the examination of specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or compatibility testing.
IVDs are typically used to test samples like blood, urine, or tissue outside of the body to diagnose diseases, monitor conditions, or determine compatibility. This device is used in vivo (within the body) for a therapeutic purpose.

Device Description
The polymer formulation used in the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Bioabsorbable Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR) Barrier with 4% Doxycycline (hereafter referred to as the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier) exists as a sterile, synthetic flowable polymeric solution. It is mixed with doxycycline hyclate prior to formation to give a 4% doxycycline concentration in the formulation prior to barrier placement. The barrier precipitates to a firm consistency upon contact with water and bioabsorbs over time. The polymer formulation is composed of poly(DL-lactide) (PLA) dissolved in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP).
One sterile ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier unit consists of:
- A large pouch containing a pouched syringe with 715 mg of the ATRISORB® polymer formulation and a syringe with 35 mg doxycycline hyclate;
- A blunt tip cannula, and;
- A product insert containing instructions for use.
The ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier package contains three product units.
The ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier functions as a guided tissue regeneration barrier by isolating the regenerative surgical site from the adjacent gingival connective tissue and epithelium. This facilitates population of the surgical site with cells from the periodontal ligament and adjacent alveolar bone that lead to regeneration. The doxycycline hyclate in the barrier serves to reduce bacterial colonization of the barrier and the surgical site.
To prepare the barrier, the user couples the two syringes and mixes the contents together by passing the contents between syringes. Then, the user fills the periodontal defect with bone grafting material and applies the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier directly over the defect area. To precipitate the barrier, the user sprays it with a fine mist of sterile water and then sutures the surgical flap closed over the barrier and site.
Once placed, the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier precludes the migration of epithelial or connective tissue cells through it, while isolating the periodontal compartment and promoting regeneration. The barrier bioabsorbs through hydrolysis over several months. However, the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier does remain at the site, intact, during the critical period when periodontal regenerative cells are proliferating during the wound-healing cascade from adjacent periodontal sources.

2.1 Formulation
The polymer formulation used in the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Bioabsorbable Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR) Barrier with 4% Doxycycline (hereafter referred to as the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier) exists as a sterile, synthetic flowable polymeric solution. It is mixed with doxycycline hyclate prior to formation to give a 4% doxycycline concentration in the formulation prior to barrier placement. The barrier precipitates to a firm consistency upon contact with water and
1
bioabsorbs over time. The polymer formulation is composed of poly(DL-lactide) (PLA) dissolved in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP).
2.2 Device
One sterile ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier unit consists of:
- A large pouch containing a pouched syringe with 715 mg of the . ATRISORB® polymer formulation and a syringe with 35 mg doxycycline hyclate;
- . A blunt tip cannula, and;
- A product insert containing instructions for use. .
The ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier package contains three product units.
2.3 Mechanics
The ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier functions as a guided tissue regeneration barrier by isolating the regenerative surgical site from the adjacent gingival connective tissue and epithelium. This facilitates population of the surgical site with cells from the periodontal ligament and adjacent alveolar bone that lead to regeneration. The doxycycline hyclate in the barrier serves to reduce bacterial colonization of the barrier and the surgical site.
To prepare the barrier, the user couples the two syringes and mixes the contents together by passing the contents between syringes. Then, the user fills the periodontal defect with bone grafting material and applies the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier directly over the defect area. To precipitate the barrier, the user sprays it with a fine mist of sterile water and then sutures the surgical flap closed over the barrier and site.
Once placed, the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier precludes the migration of epithelial or connective tissue cells through it, while isolating the periodontal compartment and promoting regeneration. The barrier bioabsorbs through hydrolysis over several months. However, the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier does remain at the site, intact, during the critical period when periodontal regenerative cells are proliferating during the wound-healing cascade from adjacent periodontal sources.
ਤੇ Intended Use
The ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier is intended for use in the surgical treatment of periodontal defects to aid in the regeneration and integration of tissue components in guided tissue regeneration procedures. ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier has been shown to reduce bacterial colonization of the barrier.
The indications for the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier are equivalent to the predicate device, the ATRISORB® GTR Barrier. The difference is the additional
2
indication for reducing the bacterial colonization of the barrier through the incorporation of doxycvcline hyclate to the barrier.
Summary of Technological Characteristics 4
The ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier is substantially equivalent to the predicate ATRISORB® GTR Barrier (K955838) and a variation of the device (K982865). Both are legally marketed products. The polymer formulation is the same in both the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier and the ATRISORB® GTR Barrier. The only difference between the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier and its predicate is the addition of doxycycline hyclate to the polymer formulation prior to barrier formation. The doxycycline is intended to reduce the bacterial colonization of the barrier.
Summary of In Vitro Studies 5
Pyrogenicity 5.1
A Limulus amebocyte lysate test (LAL) estimated the concentration of bacterial endotoxins in an extract of the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier. The results indicated that the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier is non-pyrogenic.
5.2 Sterilization
The ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier is terminally sterilized by Cobalt-60 gamma irradiation.
In Vitro Characterization of the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier 5.3
The ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier was characterized in a simulated use test to demonstrate that the molecular weight specification for the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier is appropriate and to determine the thickness of the directly applied barrier. The molecular weight of the polymer is a key factor in influencing the viscosity and precipitation behavior of the formulation.
In the experiment, ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier formulations with four different PLA molecular weights (21, 25, 41, and 64 kiloDaltons) were evaluated for handling properties and barrier thickness. Results were compared to previous data generated for the directly applied version of the predicate ATRISORB® GTR Barrier.
All ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barriers passed the simulated use test criteria, verifying that the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier molecular weight limit (21 kiloDaltons) is appropriate. Thickness comparisons demonstrated that the average thickness of the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier (0.474-3.584 mm) is slightly less than the average thickness of the
3
directly applied version of the ATRISORB® GTR Barrier (0.729-3.178 mm). These data support that the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier is suitable for its intended use.
5.4 Irradiation of Doxycycline Hyclate
Experiments were performed to demonstrate that gamma irradiation has no detrimental effects on the doxycycline hyclate present in the barrier, as this is how the device is rendered sterile. Investigators detected a color change from bright yellow to a yellow-brown after irradiation. Attempting to determine if the heat of irradiation produced this effect, investigators heated doxycycline hyclate, but observed no color change.
Additional doxycycline analysis detected three impurities not present in unirradiated doxycycline hyclate. However, the levels of these impurities were less than 0.1% and, therefore, considered insignificant.
Bioassay results also indicated that the potency of doxycycline irradiated at levels of up to 110.9 kGy remained unchanged after irradiation. Further, clinically usable barriers were formed using irradiated doxycycline hyclate.
Collectively these results indicate that the use of gamma irradiation at levels up to 39.4 kGy do not significantly alter the chemical structure, potency, and/or the ability of the doxycycline hyclate to be incorporated into clinically acceptable barriers.
5.5 In Vitro Release of Doxycycline
Atrix has conducted in vitro doxycycline release studies with ATRISORB®-D Barriers containing varying levels of doxycycline (between 1.0% and 10%) formed extraorally in barrier-forming cases. Results demonstrated greater than 90% cumulative release of doxycycline from the barriers into water at 24 hours.
5.6 In Vitro Bioactivity
Time kill assay and agar diffusion techniques were used to demonstrate that an ATRISORB®-D Barrier with 5% doxycycline exhibited bioactivity against periodontal pathogens in vitro. The growth of both Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans and Porphyromonas gingivalis were inhibited when exposed to various sizes of ATRISORB®-D Barriers with 5% doxycycline in these assays. This study supports the in vitro bioactivity of the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier.
6 Summary of In Vivo Implantation Studies
Results from two nonclinical studies performed with the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier in the dog demonstrated no significant tissue irritation. In addition, extensive biocompatibility, implantation and degradation studies performed
4
previously on the predicate ATRISORB® GTR Barrier and ATRISORB®-D Barriers with varying concentrations of doxycycline (between 2.5% and 10%) support that the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier is safe for its intended use.
Clinical Performance Data r
Atrix performed a six-month clinical study to compare reduction of microorganisms and clinical outcomes following the treatment of Class II furcation defects with either ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier applied directly over decalcified freezedried bone allograft (DFDBA) versus ATRISORB® GTR Barrier applied over DFDBA. It was conducted at three different centers.
The study's primary objective was to demonstrate that sites treated with the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier applied directly over bone graft material had significantly greater microbial reductions than sites treated with the case-formed ATRISORB® GTR Barrier applied over the same graft material. Researchers compared reductions in total anaerobic bacterial counts and specific counts of periodontal pathogens at evaluated timepoints through Week 6 and met the objective. The ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier treatment group demonstrated significantly greater reductions for total anaerobes and counts of P. intermedia/P. nigrescens when compared to the ATRISORB® GTR Barrier control. Reductions approaching significant levels in favor of the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier were also observed for counts of F. nucleatum.
The study's secondary objective was to evaluate efficacy endpoints (change from baseline for the following clinical parameters: horizontal attachment level, vertical attachment level, probing depth, and percent defect closure) at Month 6. These data will be reported later.
Finally, levels of doxycycline achieved in the gingival crevicular fluid at surgical sites in all subjects were consistently higher than the minimum inhibitory concentrations of commonly isolated periodontal pathogens.
8 Conclusions
The claims for the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier are equivalent to the ATRISORB® GTR Barrier. Additionally, the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier also claims to reduce bacterial colonization of the barrier.
A human clinical trial has demonstrated that the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier is superior to the predicate ATRISORB® GTR Barrier as an implantable barrier intended to aid in the healing of periodontal defects.
In vitro, animal, and clinical studies have demonstrated that the ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier is safe and effective for its stated indications (treatment of periodontal disease and reducing bacterial colonization of the ATRISORB®-D
5
FreeFlow™ Barrier) and is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, the ATRISORB® GTR Barrier.
The ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier is non-pyrogenic and biocompatible.
The ATRISORB®-D FreeFlow™ Barrier is bioabsorbed, eliminating the need for a second surgical procedure to remove the barrier.
